Tcode to check Resources extension for a period

[Former Member]

hi, what is the tcode to check resource being extended to a period in APO ?

[rupesh_brahmankar3]

Dear,

You can check in /SAPAPO/RES01 in resource list you will have all the details in  Resource list.

To update the validity period of a resource without saving the resource again, you can use the report /SAPAPO/CRES_CAPACITY_LENGTHEN. SAP recommend that you schedule the report periodically.

supposing if i want to set the validity of resources outside the range of DS planning table such a way that it encompasses DS range...then will the same t code help...coz when i had been through i couldnt find the label "increase the validity of resources " from this date to this date"

Hi,

I just wanted to add some information to the discussion about resource validity in APO.  Popular thinking is that the CFC7 transaction in ECC will set the days - and + that the resource is created for in APO.  This is not the case.  CFC7 sets the validity for ECC resources only and should be set to exceed the length of the APO resource validity.

The other experts in this thread have described where you can see the resource validity in APO by checking the time stream with //REST02 and extending the resource with //CRES_CAPACITY_LENGTHEN.

Normally, APO resources are created in APO with -30 and +180 days.  The days are then manually changed.  You may wish to create all of the resources for a different time period.  This is done in table //RESLCT.  The table can usually be changed and there should be 1 entry only in the table.  If you see 2 or more entries, delete them and leave only the desired entry.

The caveat is that you don't want to extend the resources any more than is necessary for your business.  So putting in +days of 1200 probably makes no sense.

well kirk i got your point  what values should i input in this RESCLT  table so that i dont get this annoying message during planning run.coz ABAPers  say don't play around with tables.

RO,

There are a couple of issues here.

1.  You started this thread by asking how to check the resource time stream. You received an answer.

2.  I added some general information about the creation of resources in LC.  You checked table //RESLCT and found 2 entries.  What resource validity do you want?  For example, if you want 30 days in the past and 400 days in the future, delete the existing 2 entries and enter another record that includes the client, 30 and 400.  Save the table and any resources created by transfer from ECC will be created -30 and +400.

3.  The number of items you want to enter in the planning board is too high.  The DSPB will show only 500 objects in the standard system. There is a Note that lets you increase this value but your performance will be slow and it will be hard to find your data.

4.  I believe you asked about the time entry error in a different message.  Try applying SAP Note 1913791.  If that doesn't work, open a message for SAP. As always, include you system version and service pack level.  Include information about your GUI as well.

Best Regards,

OK.

Now I see that Krishnamurthy Jarakunti made the original post and received an answer.  RO jumped on with additional questions. 

Questions should be in individual message threads so people don't get confused like I did.

Point taken.

[kenneth_snyder]

Also lets be clear.

CFC9 doesn't do anything.

RESLCT only works for manually created resources in APO.

Hi Krishnamurthy,

You actually need to check its validity in the transaction /sapapo/rest02 where you will see the time series generated for the resource in Live Cache.

If it's not extended properly, you need to generate the time-series for the resource periodically; and this can be done by the program/SAPAPO/CRES_CAPACITY_LENGTHEN.
